"Is it because it's raining outside and some passengers sat here directly after their clothes got wet?" Xiao Gu reached out and touched the backrest. It didn't feel like rain. It felt weird. He couldn't explain clearly: "I still
Change your position."
The bus was driving smoothly, and the scenery on both sides was rapidly reversing, but he didn't feel any bumps.
Standing up, Xiao Gu glanced around and saw that there were very few passengers on the last bus. Counting him, there were only six in total.
The first three rows on the left were empty, and there was an old lady sitting in the fourth row. She kept looking out the window, as if she had something on her mind.
There is a woman sitting in the fourth row on the right, playing with her mobile phone with her head down.
She was about thirty years old and dressed very fashionably. She must be an employee of a nearby company. She had worked overtime and was taking the last train home.
Xiao Gu was sitting in the middle of the bus. Behind him was a woman who looked to be in her forties or fifties, holding a three or four year old child in her arms.
This woman's figure was severely out of shape, thick from top to bottom, and there were pockmarks on her face, but the child in her arms was handsome and looked nothing like her.
Looking back, I saw a student sitting in the last row of the bus. He was carrying a schoolbag and his coat was soaked by the rain, as if he had just come out of a cram school.
"Students are under so much pressure now." Just as Xiao Gu was about to look away, the male student sitting in the last row of the bus suddenly raised his head and looked at him, but the student quickly looked away.
"Why is there no color on his face and his body is still trembling? Is he sick?"
Xiao Gu, a passenger in the car, looked around and found nothing strange.
He changed his position and sat near the rear door.
Playing the role of a murderer in a haunted house is also a physical job. You need to run back and forth. Sometimes, in order to create surprises, you have to follow the boss's instructions, take long detours, and block the tourists in advance through secret passages.
After a day of tossing like this, Xiao Gu was very tired.
He leaned back in his chair, feeling sleepy and his eyelids became a little heavy.
When Xiao Gu was about to fall asleep, something lightly touched him on the back of his head.
Turning around, he saw a small paper ball on the ground: "Did that student throw it?"
Xiao Gu picked up the paper ball. He originally thought it was a prank, but recalling the student's expression just now, he felt a little uneasy.
Holding the note, Xiao Gu looked back and saw the student huddled in the last row with his head lowered, as if he hadn't thrown the note just now.
Without asking, Xiao Gu unfolded the note in his hand and scrawled a sentence on it with a pen - Don't sleep, be careful where you sit or stand.
It was a very common reminder. Xiao Gu knew that the other party had good intentions. He put the note away, smiled at the boy in the last row, and said softly: "It's okay, I got off at the terminal."
He deliberately lowered his voice, but because no one spoke in the car and it was very quiet, his voice was much louder than he expected.
As soon as the word "terminal" was exited, the bus suddenly shook slightly. Gu Feiyu looked towards the cab and found that the driver was also observing him in the rearview mirror.
The driver was wearing the uniform of the Jiujiang Bus Company and his jacket was a little shabby. His Adam's apple rolled and his face was covered with sweat. He seemed very nervous and scared.
Holding the steering wheel tightly with both hands, the driver and the students alike avoided Xiao Gu's sight.
"What is he afraid of?" Xiao Gu was a little confused. The driver looked at him strangely just now, as if he wanted to send some message to Xiao Gu.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. There were two different worlds inside and outside the car. Xiao Gu didn't dare to sleep anymore. He secretly watched the other passengers in the car.
The bus sped through the rainy night and quickly arrived at the next stop.
The No. 104 bus entered the platform, and after it stopped, the electronically synthesized sound sounded again.
"Ding! We've arrived at the Central Hospital. Passengers getting off the bus, please take your belongings with you and get off the bus through the back door."
The front and rear doors opened at the same time, and raindrops from outside fell into the car.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a red string tied around his wrist got on the car from the front door. He was wearing a white coat and he was probably a doctor from the Central Hospital.
Standing next to the driver, the doctor rummaged in his pocket for change, but couldn't find it after searching for a long time.
Seeing that it was raining outside, the driver didn't care about the man and motioned for him to get in the car first and then look for him slowly.
The front door was closed, and the doctor grabbed the armrest and walked into the car. He paused when passing Xiao Gu and turned to look at Xiao Gu.
Sitting in his seat, Xiao Gu raised his head and looked at the doctor. He found that the doctor looked terrible, his eyebrows were ugly, and his eyes would bulge out when he looked at people, as if they were about to fall out.
"Hello..." Xiao Gu was really embarrassed by being seen by the doctor, so he stood up and prepared to get out of the car and leave.
When the doctor saw Xiao Gu getting up, he took the initiative to back away, smiled sheepishly at Xiao Gu, and sat down next to Xiao Gu on the other side of the aisle.
It was very dark inside the car, and Xiao Gu vaguely noticed that when the doctor smiled just now, he seemed to have no teeth in his mouth.
He touched the note in his pocket and walked directly towards the rear door without staying there for long.
"I'd better take a taxi back." Holding the armrest, Xiao Gu froze when he walked to the door of the car. He had a look of disbelief on his face.
Just outside the back door of the bus, on the platform, stood a woman wearing a red raincoat. The woman lowered her head and her hair was stuck together, covering her face.
"Red Raincoat? Why is she here? This is not the site just now!"
Gu Feiyu froze at the door, and the cold synthesized voice in the car sounded again.
"When the vehicle starts, please sit still and hold on. You are welcome to take the No. 104 unmanned ticketing bus. Passengers who get on the bus, please move to the back door. The next stop is Hong's Restaurant."
The back door slowly closed, and Xiao Gu realized at this moment: "Why did the woman in the raincoat appear outside the Central Hospital site? She seems to be a little closer to the back door! She has been following me?"
There was sweat on his forehead. Xiao Gu behaved similarly to the driver just now. He held on to the armrest tightly and did not return to his seat immediately.
"Are you... feeling unwell?" A cold voice suddenly came from behind, and the doctor stared at Xiao Gu's back.
"It's okay." Xiao Gu sat back down and lowered his voice: "Brother, did you see a woman standing outside the rear door just now? She was wearing a red raincoat."
"Red raincoat?" The doctor shook his head: "Did you see it wrong?"
"Impossible." Xiao Gu turned to the students in the last row and said, "Did you see that woman just now? She was standing in the middle of the station!"
The student didn't answer Xiao Gu's question, and didn't even turn his head. He looked at the rain outside the window intently, but he kept groping in his schoolbag, as if he was looking for something.
